Was surprised to see the ratings so low for this one. A hop lovers dream heffeweizen! not a tasteless wheat ale, but one that hits you in the face with the hop aroma and flavor. great heffe color and cloudiness, but its the flavor of this one that really makes it stand out. still very crisp and clean taste on the palate, not a fat, witbier taste, but very clean tight bubbles, and the great mix of hoppy and citrus zest from a heffeweizen that deserves a much higher rating than this.

UPDATED: AUG 4, 2014 Sampled at American Craft Beer Fest 2010. Pours a light golden color. Aroma and flavor both of spicy yeast and citrusy hops. Light texture. A decent beer. Edit: Growler poured into a tulip. Pours hazy golden with a white head. Aroma of the spicy yeast, light wheat, and some nice floral/citrusy hops. Flavor the same. Why did I give this a low score the first time I had it? Not sure, but it’s definitely a good beer.

Draft at Redlight Redlight. The pour yields a hazy, golden colored body with a small head of swirly white foam. Minimal, spotty lacing marks the glass. The aroma shows wheat grain, minerals, and coriander, with a peppery, citrus rind hop note. Flavors follow suit, primarily based in cereal grain, with a slightly metallic, mineral note, and a light, spicy, lemongrass hop bite. Light in body and balanced on the tongue, it is quite quaffable, though the metallic tendencies are a little off-putting. There’s a slight astringency on the finish. Decent brew.
